Gregory, G. Howard. 38th Virginia Infantry (H.E. Howard: 1988), pp. 64-66, 98: Colonel Griggs himself wrote about his role at the battles of Five Forks and Sayler’s Creek. The roster entry for Griggs states: “Surrendered with army at Appomattox 4/9/65”, but on page 66 the author indicates Griggs commanded the brigade from April 7, 1865 on. ↩
